ARTHUR LASER, Cashier. State of Illinois | County of Cook § S58 Subscribed and sworn to before me this 7th day of January, 1928. H. MARY ANDERSON, (Seal). . Notary Public POET VISITS HERE Johanna Frada, Associate Editor of Seattle Jewish Transcript, Guest at Pick Home Winnetka has had a distinguished visitor in the community for several months in the person of Mrs. Herbert Greenberg of Seattle, Wash, who, under the name of Johanna Frada, is known throughout the country as a poet and associate editor of the Jewish Transcript in the western city. Johanna Frada Greenberg has been visiting at the home of her daughter, Mrs. Albert Mrs. Pick, Jr., in Winnetka. She will go to New York within a few weeks be- fore returning to the West Coast. In her poetry Johanna Frada gives expression to a prophetic vision of the destiny of the Jewish race. She sounds the note of an undying hope, yea, even a note of triumph. One of her outstanding contributions follows : by Johanna Frada An ancient people. Lo! awake! In fetters that the centuries break! And in their eves a vision gleams That lights the future with its dreams. With heads uplifted to the skies, The crouching multitudes arise, From East and West, from South and North, Behold, the multitudes come forth! A tragic throng on royal quest, Of every land, unwelcomed guest; The children of a mighty king, The saints of whom the psalmists sing. Unconquerable through blood they trod, A ravaged mass, on sea and sod; Through groans of woes, past sacred bier, And still they sing hosannas--hear! They come afar, from land and sea, Jehoval's heirs they are to be. Their ancient kingdom to rebuild, It is a prophecy fulfilled. A land--the world's most sacred spot That fell to desecration's lot, Where law and liberty had birth, When Israel was king of earth. O mystic singers in the flesh! Now comes your glory all afresh; As bride in holy raiment sheathed Fair Zion stands of HIM bequeathed. Behold her lovely vision breaks Through clouds of malice, and awakes Fair David's harp. Ten thousand strings Of her Immortal beauty sings! Its rapturous music puts to flight Her woes upon the wings of night As from afar, ecstatic, fleet, Impassioned, breaks at Zion's feet! And pageantries from worlds of old, Triumphant march through arcs of gold With melodies and victory shod To gather at the feet of God. nn 4]
